| Body | The deadline for the poster contest has been extended!! Deadline for chapter submissions to AATG is now October 31, 2005. Please consider having your students make a "why learn German?" poster as an initial project in the fall. Year of Languages (YOL) Poster Contest Poster Theme: Why learn German? * This contest is open to any K-12 German students in the US. * Posters should be no larger than 23 x 34 inches and no smaller than 8 ½ x 11 inches. * Students can use any two-dimensional (i.e., everything must be flat on the poster) media that is not copyrighted. They can incorporate language (German and/or English), colors, different fonts, and so on. They can make drawings, take pictures, make a collage, etc. Posters must be submitted to the local AATG chapter. The deadline to submit entries to the local chapter has been extended to September 30, 2005 for the initial judging by a committee selected by the chapter president. This submission to the local chapter of AATG can be electronic (e.g., a picture of the poster, or an e-poster), or an actual artifact. Submissions must include the name of the student, level of German, school name, teacher name, and level, e.g., * Elementary (K- 5 or 6) * Middle School/Jr. High (6 or 7 - 8 or 9) * High School (9 or 10 - 12) Chapters pick one winner from each level, if possible, up to a maximum of three total (i.e., they have no elementary school programs - or they have no submissions at a given level). The three winners from the local AATG chapters are submitted electronically to the AATG YOL Poster Contest committee, consisting of post-secondary level AATG members, and judges from the German-American Chamber of Commerce, as selected by the AATG Executive Director. Electronic submission of chapter winners must be made to the AATG; deadline has been extended to October 31, 2005. National winners will be announced at AATG Annual Meeting in Baltimore in November 2005. Prizes will be sent to winning students in November. We will announce details of prizes as soon as they are firm; we hope to offer books, dictionaries, T-shirts, etc. All chapter posters submitted become the property of AATG and may be used for publicity purposes, sold as promotional items, and/or featured on the AATG website. Please encourage your students to make a poster as part of the Year of Languages and submit it to the contest. Green, A. [AATG-L] YOL poster deadline extended.
